Default left front caliper mounting bracket problems S60

Need part # for mounting bracket for 2001 S60 When I order the caliper from my auto supplier the mounting bracket it too tall and it appears to be for the larger rotor option. I am on my 3rd caliper kit from different sources and none has the shorter mounting bracket.
Any one out there have a part #

Why not use the old ones? What's wrong with them?

To answer your question, Here's the parts page -

Mounting bracket doesnt hold caliper squarely so the pads will not contact the rotor more than 50% am trying to find a loaded caliper that fits but seem to be getting the mounting brackets for bigger rotors. No body has Cardone Parts that I have sourced the part #'s for so I have just ordered a loaded caliper for a S60 with the 15" wheels as the last two calipers I got were for 16" wheels. It's my last ditch effort.I thought their would be different brackets for 286 vs 305mm rotors. Manufacturers dont seem to care about this spec, just wheel size and OEM not available for 2001

Have you swapped the brackets from side to side to verify it is the bracket causing a problem?

Voluparts.com in Atlanta would probably have a used one 404-352-3402 Not sure it would be worth it to ship to Canada.

Or the parts catalog show 3 different part numbers for part #7 And you say you can't buy one of these?
